If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and walks like a duck it probably is a duck, even if you want to call it a dog. Was she joking, certainly. Is it still racist, yes. I personally don't think context matters. Something is racist or it is not. That joke is racist if told by David Duke or Harry Edwards. I find no argument compelling enough to make me think there is a grey area regarding racism.

Racial.

Racist.

Say them both.

They sound similar.

But they are different.

You're right, you know.

And that's precisely how the Trump haters operate.

Although many will deny it.

Frank, Tail really put into context the conclusion I came to. Hillary was not being racist. If Trump, or for that matter most if not all conservative politicians had said that, they would be blasted with intense outrage from the left.

But it's a tough comparison to make, because the joke had to be said about two white guys.
It had to be either a woman or a person of color.
And I don't think republicans allow that...

side points as this winds down into repetitive oblivion

- had I brought up Trump in a thread about Hillary, I would have been blasted and diagnosed with Fake Disease Syndrome

- the new snowflakes (Trumpers) are not only butt hurt about what DOES happen to the Prez, but now it has evolved into what they assume WOULD happen...which sure sounds like a real syndrome to me.

Tripod...OUT!
